MLC&Water Step

March 29, 2024 By Marty Mills

Lions dropped off old shoes at the Den (Environmental Project) and loaded them in Lion Kay’s vehicle.  Lion PDG Marty transported them to Middletown Christian Church room 223.  Water Step will pick them up later.

What is Water Step?  Clean water anywhere in the world.

By donating your new and gently used shoes to WaterStep, you’ll help fund safe drinking water projects all over the world — projects that help to save hundreds of thousands of lives each year. In addition to funding water projects, donated shoes keep hundreds of tons of waste out of our landfills. We accept gently used shoes that are free of mold/mildew. Athletic shoes are preferred, but we will accept all styles of shoes. Shoes are sold to an exporter and funds received help bring clean water to those in need.

STEPS TO GET STARTED
1. Set Dates For Your Shoe Drive
2. Get The Word Out
3. Partner With Other Organizations
4. Do A Demonstration
Decide when and for how long you want to host your shoe drive. Any time of year is good, but timing your shoe drive with other events like school activities, birthdays, or holidays can help get the word out.
